Event details
This ongoing event will be held from Sunday, Oct. 1, to Tuesday, Oct. 31. Hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesdays to Sundays.
Pick up some dirty tricks to earn some treats! Help Hidden Lakes Trout Farm look its best by picking up litter in the preserve. Fishing line and other debris pose serious threats to our furry and feathered friends. Animals may become entangled in fishing line or swallow hooks or bits of plastic. Check in at the Tackle Box for a bucket and grabbers. Fill the bucket then return to earn a treat.
